The habeas corpus in the requisition
case of Eugene Finger, wanted in
Shelby county, Iowa, was argued at
length before Judge Wilkin in chambers
yesterday. i lie case was narrowed
down to two points. First, was there
sufficient documentary evidence before
Gov. McGill to warrant the inference
that the relator was fugitive from
justice? second, is the Indictment a
valid one? The judge intimated that
should he be compelled upon these two
points to hold against the relator, he
would then advise with his brethren of
the bench as TO whether eXtrinsic
testimony should be admitted in sup
port of the allegation of the relatOr
that the requiSition was signed by a
clerk of the executive, instead of by
the executive himself. The counsel are
unable to find any precedent in relation
to the last point, and the court init
mated that in all probability none ex-
listed. An application for bail pending
the decision of the court was made, but
being opposed by the respondents
counsel, the court also took the question
under adyisement.
